I don't like MTX subs. I find JL's to be clean and tight. Personally I like Kicker also, but they take a little more air.

not the squares, a <> 10 only needs .66 sealed, and they hit HARD

I just got two MTX thunder 5500s and they sound pretty good. Too damn loud, i actually wish i could turn the amp gains down but they are already as low as possible.

yeah, thats what i was lookin at, either the 5500 or 7500. i was also lookin at JLw3 but what would a good price be on them? and yes i want 12" and the box is sealed. the amp is the 974 or something like that its 500wx2 at 2ohms. what do you think about the new kicker CVR's also?
